APG's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, APG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 100,443,676,790 kg CO2e. This figure represents a significant increase from 2022, when emissions were about 97,983,756,710 kg CO2e, and from 2021, which saw emissions of approximately 96,310,701,370 kg CO2e. The emissions data does not specify Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, indicating a lack of detailed disclosure in these areas. APG has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as evidenced by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Furthermore, there are no climate pledges reported, suggesting that APG may not currently be engaged in formal climate commitments. The carbon intensity of electricity produced by APG has been reported, with values of 512.4 g CO2e/kWh in 2023, 549.9 g CO2e/kWh in 2022, and 535.6 g CO2e/kWh in 2021. This data indicates a trend in carbon intensity, although specific reduction strategies or commitments to lower these figures have not been disclosed. Overall, while APG's emissions figures are substantial, the lack of specific reduction targets or climate commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in their sustainability strategy.
